I am sure with your shirt on and not being bent over like that, the belly cant hardly be noticed by others though. But I understand what you mean as my belly was sticking out about the same as my chest too and that makes you not look as big as you are. A nice v-taper really makes someone look big and the wider your waist, the smaller your v-taper is.
Basically I want to wear a wife beater and not be concerned that my gut is on full display, much rather my chest and shoulders and narrow waist (sounds much better! LOL)
You should look into carb cycling as you dont have much fat to lose and I have done well with carb cycling. I have been doing carb cycling again for the last 10 days and I have lost 5.5 lbs, down from 219 to 214.5.
But I must say, I have added in some cardio on an eliptical machine 4 days per week on lifting days for 15 mins before and 15 mins after my lifting.
Oh, and If you are thick and not wide, then I'd say to start working more with width exercises on back days. For my back days I have gone to a thickness day and a width day (as I do back twice per week).
This will keep my back development balance, but I am already equally wide as thick.
Good luck man
